I pour vinegar on the weeds in my driveway and it kills them in a couple days. I'd certainly do a pH test before putting that on my garden.

If the instructions are correct, this is a dilute vinegar solution. After the eggshells and vinegar are sitting for 24-72 hours the separated vinegar solution has the calcium diffused in it from the breakdown of the shell by the vinegar. 200 ml of solution is mixed into 10 liters of rainwater or preferred spring/purified water. It can stress the plant if it is too high in iron without treating it or adding something to soil to counter the high iron content... in the US where we live. Some ppl add baking soda to water, but if used too often it can change pH of soil and harm the plant's productivity if soil is left unmonitored.

I kill weeds with it. Works great. Never tried it on cucumbers, probably never will.

Please notice this is obviously from somewhere in Russia if the label on bottle is indicator. Know instead what is needful for your particular soil type here in US, whether acid soil, or alkaline.

Right...

yes I was going to say vinegar has acid,, I also knew it would kill weeds if you put it right on them, I always have extra plants growing I might experiment,, because of curiosity,, I think it will work,, just like salt will help flower production, if it's not too much, and most herbicides are made of chemically altered salt?

thats not even vinegar in the bottle thats something else, (i can read russian)

There are 250 mls in a cup not 200 mls as indicated. Common table vinegar is 5% not 9%. Pickling vinegar can be as much as 7 %. So do add 250 ml of the 5% percent and everything will even out. You don't need to soak egg shells in vinegar all day. Just thoroughly crush/mix the egg shells in vinegar for a few minutes then dilute that with a gallon of water.

I think cuz I have the same question. But if we use 5 percent vinegar then add 200ml to about 4.5 or 5 liters of water. Because if they use 9 percent vinegar to 10 liters water we will need about half of the water to make the same consistency.

Vinegar and egg shells turns into pure calcium and is fantastic for your plants. Remember vinegar is a natural fermented product and lowers the ph of the soil and at the mixture describe is just adding micronutrients the plant can use. Totally safe as described and very beneficial,if in doubt try on one plant. You’ll soon be using it all over the garden. 1 part egg shells 5 parts vinegar,store for a week until all bubbling has stopped. Use at one teaspoon per gallon once a week for root drench and once a week for folia feed.
